Inner goth?

[frualeydis]

You know, people have claimed for years that everybody has an inner goth. Well not me, inner punk rocker? definitely, inner hippie? Yep! But inner goth? No way! Goth culture encompasses everything I don't like: Black clothing, plastic clothing, drama, more drama, self-created angst, bad poetry and melodramatic behaviour. Not to mention a will to be miserable. That doesn't mean that I don't like those of my friends who identify with goth culture. Just because I don't like goth culture doesn't mean it's bad, or even that I think it's bad. It just means that I don't personally like it. And I'm not the source of all wisdom y'know ;) Heck, I like a lot of things other people run away screaming from (weird 16th century headwear, anything matronly, pastel pink, 4 inch heels, 80s heavy metal and chick peas to name a few).
But, to get back on track: Maybe there is an inner goth in me after all, because I sort of like these:



I had ugly feet even before my toes got deformed by arthritis, so I won't wear anything as open as this, but I still think they're cool.

hm... jeg liker endel av goterklærne, men skjønner ikke hele "jeg er tristere enn deg"-greia...

selve sandalene er ganske søte, men har ikke noe videre til overs for kilehæler.-

I think I had a pair just like these in 1975, but without the skulls and flowers. They remind me more of the Grateful Dead!

Ya know, there IS a brand of goth known as "My Little Pony Goth". It encompasses things like rainbow colored hairfalls and glitter! =D

I think these shoes freaking rock. No, really. I would have absolutely no place to wear them.

Well, yeah, actually I would, since there are a few "goth" bands I would actually dress up to go see live.

Scary thought, that.

It's worse: There is even a my little pony goth dance.
